Cranbourne-based NDIS provider Kare ONE has been recognised for its care and support services on a global platform.
The provider took out the recent Most Outstanding Personal Care Provider in the World 2024 award at the Global Housing, Healthcare and Enablement Awards held in London.
This followed the agency winning the Most Outstanding Regional Personal Care Provider in Australia award in the Enablement Awards 2024.
An NDIS provider, Kare ONE provides care and support services for older individuals, people living with disabilities, family carers, people coping at home after hospital or illness and families of children with a disability.
Kare ONE managing director Jodie King said the award was a recognition of the hard work of the agency’s staff.
“We pride ourselves on tailoring each client’s experience through careful carer placement and open, honest communication. We offer an emergency 24-hour on-call service delivered from in-house staff, which enables our clients to have contact with us at all crucial times,” she said.
“We recognise that each individual person has different needs, and expectations of service and we endeavour to meet all our clients’ expectations through being transparent with what we can deliver.
“When someone sees a person with a disability, for example in a wheelchair, few people wonder ‘how did that person get in that chair?
“Well, that’s what we do. Personal care is what assists a person to get out of bed, through the shower and beautifully dressed to go out and present themselves to the world, regardless of their mobility.”
Kare ONE, now in partnership with migrant and refugee settlement agency AMES Australia, was founded in 2005, bringing in-home services in which clients and carers develop personal relationships.
